Emergency puncture repair
07
The emergency puncture repair kit has limit-
ed abilities to seal tyres which have punc-
tures in the wall of the tyre. Do not seal tyres
with the emergency puncture repair kit if they
have larger slits, cracks, irregularities or simi-
lar damage.
The emergency puncture repair kit with com-
pressor and tools are found under the floor in
the cargo area.
12 V sockets for the compressor are located
by the centre console in the front, by the rear
seat and in the cargo area. Choose the elec-
trical socket that is nearest the punctured
tyre.
Taking out the emergency puncture
repair kit
Fold away the rear edge of the floor mat,
forward from the back.
Lift up the emergency puncture repair kit.
WARNING
The sealing fluid may cause irritation if it
comes into direct contact with skin. In the
case of contact with skin, wash away the
fluid with soap and water.
